best airfare comparison site for cheap flights

Airfare is one of the main considerations when one is planning a holiday at a distant destination. Most people would do a great deal of research on airfares before actually booking their flight. And yes, these are the people who generally get the best deals on airfares.auctions are held for air tickets on many websites and travelers do find bargains at such auctions. All the traditional ways of booking websites seem to become passé.

Buy tickets online

If you really want to save on airline tickets,There are plenty of airline price comparison websites that will do all the work for you and all you have to do then is to select the price that is within your budget. You might need to be flexible on your travel dates and the number of stops you are prepared to accept on your flight to get the best prices.best airfare comparison sites such as Kayak, Priceline and Orbitz provide an option for "flexible travel" which shows dates that offer lower fares.


Here are a list of the best websites I check regularly for discount airfare:

o Travelocity.com
o Priceline
o Kayak.com
o Expedia
o ITA software
o Qixo
o Mobissimo
These airfare comparison sites check prices from many different airlines and offer the flights and destinations that you are looking for.
There are others, of course, but these are the ones I've used most often. Also don't forget to check the airline websites; if you find a great fare on Travelocity for Delta, Delta might have it cheaper, and it is usually better to deal directly rather than through a middleman. Also remember not all sites include taxes in their fare quotes.
